Code an App
Code an App
We spend a lot of time on our phones, and even more specifically, on TikTok. The stats from Statista can prove it. But have you ever wondered how things work behind the scenes to keep us entertained on apps such as, well, TikTok? Or how code becomes an app? Or whether you even need to code to make an app, especially now in the age of AI, low/no-code tools, and “bots that can code”? Maybe you’ve even thought of creating a “TikTok” of your own, reverse engineering the existing one, or even creating a “better version” without the issues that you might have come across. In this article, we define an app, go through the basics of coding one, and show you step-by-step how to code an app from scratch. We also talk about why learning by doing is a great approach and answer some questions you might still have about how to build an app from scratch.
